Someone

Written the morning of 1/9/13. I was feeling overwhelmed.

I'm losing it
I'm losing control

I need someone
Someone to keep me from falling

I'm spiraling
Help me
I can't keep doing this on my own

It could all be solved by one person
Or it could all come crashing down

One thought
One sentence
One action
Could ruin it all

I can't support myself anymore
I need someone to fall back on

Not some thing
Not a concept
Someone
Some person

Some person would can put me in their arms
Hold me tight
Whisper in my ear
Smile at me
Make everything right

So many depend on me
and I allow them to
It doesn't bother me
I want them to
   But I need someone too

Someone who can share my fears
My anxieties
I'm exhausted from holding them in

It's gone on for too long
I'm only human

Don't release me from my pain
Just help me share it
With someone's help
I can grin and bear it

Author's Note

"Some person would can put me in their arms", I know this is a typo, but I felt that leaving it in from the original would show the emotional chaos involved.

This is a really interesting write... It shows so much emotion... It is really such a beautiful write... I believe everyone eventually comes to that point where they ask themselves if they will find someone for them... Eventually you will find something though. Just keep your head up high. :)

Sometimes we just need someone there to encourage us, help take the load of our shoulders, sometimes we just need a friend. Nicely done :)
